  • Title: Numerical analysis of cardiopulmonary blood volumes in 113In(m) radiocardiography.
    Author: Olkkonen H, Suonio S, Helin M.
    Journal: Phys Med Biol; 1976 Sep; 21(5):804-11. PubMed ID: 788006.
    Abstract:
    A theory of streamline flow of a viscous liquid was applied to the calculation of cardiac and pulmonary parameters (minute volume, stroke volume, right heart, pulmonary and left heart blood volumes) in a radiocardiographic model based on the modified gamma function. The practical feasibility of the formulations was tested using a physical flow model. The cardiopulmonary blood volumes measured from 14 normal subjects were consistent with the results obtained by more complex techniques. The present method is manageable on a small computer and is well suited to clinical routine use in connection with standard single detector 113In(m) radiocardiography.
